Lust Love Latex: About laser cut fishnets

From the Lust Love Latex Blog: Original Article Here

“Laser cut latex fashion has been a big thing this year, both for the more established latex designers as well as the DIY latex enthusiasts out there.

The latest craze on the laser cut fashion front-line is these amazing Latex Fishnet Stockings from Ego Assassin.

I asked James from Ego Assassin, how they came up with this idea “We got the idea to make latex fishnets because over the years many of our customers have asked us if it was possible to make such a thing. We have always had to say no because we couldn’t think of a way to cut a fine and consistent mesh pattern into latex, and still maintain any semblance of durability. I know that many latex designers — ourselves included — have attempted to solve this problem with a variety of appliqué-based approaches, but the final product was always rather bulky and the look was never quite right.” He continues “When Kink Engineering announced they would be offering laser-cutting services to the latex industry, one of our first thoughts was that it could be used to finally make a true fishnet latex stocking. We experimented with various laser settings, hole shapes, and mesh densities, until we arrived at a pattern that worked.”

So how the stockings are produced? James explains “The stockings are made by laying a sheet of latex into the laser machine, and cutting the whole stocking in one piece, including thousands of tiny rounded slashes. The piece is then taken out of the machine, the off-cuts are removed, and it is thoroughly cleaned. The stockings are then assembled with one seam up the back and reinforcement around the edges.

The end result is a sheer, lightweight, and durable latex fishnet stocking that can be worn on its own, or shined up and paired any latex outfit.” Check out this video from Ego Assassin on how easy it is to put on the stockings: Pretty cool, right?

The stocking are actually leg sleeves witch is a really good thing, as your tiny toes won’t get stuck in the stockings mesh and is simply much more comfortable to wear. I also believe they would also look fantastic on top of regular pair of latex stockings. I’m sure that we have just scratched the surface of what is possible with laser cut latex, and we can expect much more on this front in the years to come!”

However, laser cutting latex is making it all much easier. Today, the industry features new challenges due to the fact latex fashion business is becoming more and more competitive. As the number of latex manufactures worldwide increases, smaller vendors face a rising demand of complexity and quality. Today, the problem is mostly related to quality. There are not many companies that create complex latex outfits because it’s too frustrating and hard to cut and create the complex shapes that the client wants. If you’re one of them, then you know how this can really take its toll on your profits. Everybody knows the Devil is in the detail. Laser cutting isn’t something entirely new, but most companies still cut latex by hand, as an industrial latex cutter is quite costly. Being laser cut, means that there is a no-touch cutting of latex, which results in really continuous and smooth cuts with zero nicks and zero chances to tear. This makes it a lot easier to create complex designs, so, now you can have the latex designs you always dreamed of come true!

Launching a new blog - The Latex Closet

THIS IS PURE AWESOME!  Archean speaks on dressing your body type for latex in an ongoing blog/site.

archeanuniverse:

I’m constantly getting people with real and sexy, yet imperfect bodies complaining about how they can’t wear latex.  Well, shut up.  You can, and I’ll prove it!

I’ve started up a new blog - The Latex Closet - which focuses on typical “problem” areas of the body, and how they can look amazing in latex.  And not just how they can look good in latex, but how latex can actually sculpt your body, making you look better and feel more confident.

I’m aiming at a bi-weekly post, but realistically, it will be a monthly affair for the next little while (I’m working full-time at Kink Engineering/Sheetlatex so until this blog becomes a well-oiled machine, time is a bit tight).  I’m also adding a collection of the writings I posted a year or two ago on introducing a partner to your kink.

I will eventually move to fashion advice for men, but since most design companies are only just starting to release new men’s lines I think those posts are a ways off.
